Generating Electricity from Shadows by Using ‘Shadow-Effect’ The novel shadow-effect energy generator developed by NUS researchers uses the contrast in illumination between the lit and shadowed areas to generate …
Sensor Consisting of Only 11 Atoms The designed 11-atom sensor contains a minuscule device with an antenna, a reset button, a hard disk, a reading screen, and is capable to capture the magnetic waves.
Bioengineered Miniature Human Livers Transplanted Into Rats, Successfully A collaborative team of researchers from the USA, Japan, China, Brazil, and Argentina had successfully grown the bioengineered organs in lab from reprogrammed human skin cells and also, successfully transplanted functional miniature livers into rats.
3D Images of Nanoparticles With Unprecedented Precision SINGLE uses in situ TEM imaging of platinum nanocrystals freely rotating in a graphene liquid cell to determine the 3D structures of individual colloidal nanoparticles.
New form of Carbon Nanostructure is Stronger Than Diamond Researchers from the University of California, Irvine, and a few other institutions present a new class of nanolattices that is constructed from closed-cell plate-architectures.
World’s Fastest Internet Speed Achieved by Australian Researchers A team of researchers from Monash, Swinburne, and Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology (RMIT) universities used the same micro-combs technique to achieve the world’s fastest internet speed and they successfully achieved it. The team recorded the internet speed of 44.2 Terabits per second.
For the First Time, Researchers Created a Stable Plasma Ring in an Open Air Developing a plasma at a room temperature environment has been a difficult task. For the first time, researchers from the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) described a way to create a stable plasma ring in the open air. The paper describing their work was published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) on November 16, 2017.
New Photon-Counting Camera Captured 3D Images with Record Speed and Resolution To overcome the limitations of the image sensors, a team of researchers from Advanced Quantum Architecture Laboratory (AQUA), Ecole polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), and Device Research & Design Department, Canon Inc. devised a new time-gating approach that entails only less than eight transistors.
New Optical System Manipulate Light Completely in New Way Researchers from California Institute of Technology (Caltech), have introduced the concept of folded metasurface optics by demonstrating a compact spectrometer made a glass slab.
Smart Textile Remotely Monitors Vital Signs MIT researchers developed a new technique to fabricate electronics into textiles and claimed that those smart textiles have properties like flexible, washable, durable, and also comfortable.
